The true identity of Rodney's father remained a constantly questioned mystery throughout the entire series, largely due to Joan's notorious repeated infidelity.

Up until then, Rodney had only ever heard rumours about Freddie's affair, and of his physical resemblance to him but had never seen an actual picture of Freddie. Now, with photographic evidence in hand, Rodney did not hesitate to tell Cassandra with absolute certainty that the man in the picture, Freddie Robdal, was his real father. The pair were so similar that he assured Cassandra that they wouldn't need DNA with this one. He then told his wife what he knew about Freddie and the manner of his death. Rodney also told Cassandra that he was pretty sure that Del did not know the truth and that he had no intention of telling him. He said that doing so would "break his heart." Frost DR (2014).

Most of the outside filming took place in Ipswich on the junction of Rectory and Seymour roads near Stoke Bridge. [1] [2] Holden, Stephen (September 1992).

Retrieved 29 May 2012.In early 1960, Freddie Robdal became close to Joan Mavis Trotter, the wife of his friend Reg Trotter. Joan was having a hard time with Reg and sought comfort in Robdal despite his criminal profile. In February 1960, Freddie and Joan slept together when Reg was out. Freddie had sent Reg away on a job to Kent and made sure that the car broke down on the way, leaving Reg stranded and unable to come home that night. This meant that Freddie could have his jollies with Joan.

Nothing more was said about Freddie for the next 16 years. Deep within his heart though, Rodney remained suspicious about his parentage, though he kept these speculations to himself. In 2003, these doubts were decisively put to rest when he borrowed a photo from Sid of the very first Jolly Boys Outing to Margate in 1960. As a treat for Del, Rodney wanted to get the picture enlarged. When he got the final photograph, however, he spotted something or more accurately somebody on it that wiped the smile right off his face. Later that evening, Rodney's wife Cassandra Trotter, noted that Rodney had been acting weirdly all day. After being prompted by Cassandra, Rodney handed her the photograph and told her to look at it. After a bit of searching, she spotted a man in the group who looked identical to Rodney as a young adult. However, the photograph had been taken in July 1960, before Rodney was even born, let alone grown up.a b Aquino L, De la Riva I, Céspedez J (2004). " Lepidobatrachus laevis".

When Robdal's will was subsequently opened, he had left everything he owned to his lover Joan, presumably as a way to support his son. Of course, given his profession, most of this stuff was stolen and was subsequently returned to their rightful owners. Joan was devastated by the news of Robdal's death and began drinking heavily. Although she did briefly sober up in October 1963, her unhealthy lifestyle caused her to develop an unspecified alcohol-related illness. Ultimately, Joan became seriously ill and was placed in a nursing home. On her deathbed, Joan confided in her friend Reenie Turpin, telling her about her suspicions that Freddie was Rodney's biological father. At the same time, Joan stated that she wished that Freddie had told her what he did with the missing fortune, noting that both of her two boys would have been set for life if she had. We know that many Australians have had a challenging start to 2020, so we want to show our support for these families by surprising them with our Cadbury Easter bunny to spread the spirit of the season,” he said. Freddie the Frog was a professional burglar. He was disloyal to his friends. He was a womanizer, a home breaker, a con man, a thief, a liar and a cheat! So no Rodney, you're nothing like him." ― Del Boy after being asked about Freddie by RodneyThe film was inspired by bedtime stories Acevski told to his son about his favorite toy frog working as a secret agent.
